Description

Broadband circularly polarized waveguide antenna and antenna array thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to an antenna and an antenna array thereof in the fields of satellite communication and microwave communication, in particular to a broadband circularly polarized waveguide antenna and an antenna array thereof.
Background
In recent years, with the vigorous development of satellite communication, antennas applied to systems such as satellite broadcast television, communication, data transmission and the like are rapidly developed, and the demand for various antennas is rapidly increased to promote the development thereof. Such as for Direct Broadcast Satellite (DBS) communication systems, there is a need for a low profile, high efficiency antenna system to increase the G/T value of the system (G being the gain of the antenna system; T being the noise temperature of the antenna system) to increase the data rate of the antenna and satellite communications. And the effective aperture of the antenna is limited by the scanning volume of the antenna, and the low-profile antenna can obtain the maximum system gain for the given scanning volume, thereby improving the G/T value of the whole system.
Waveguide antennas are used in a large number of applications, particularly in radar systems, due to their high efficiency, ease of amplitude and phase control, and simplicity of processing. The waveguide antenna has two types of traveling wave array and standing wave array (resonance array), and the waveguide traveling wave array has wider bandwidth and frequency sweep characteristic. But the efficiency is lower, and the method is suitable for manufacturing large-scale planar arrays; the standing wave array has high efficiency and narrow bandwidth, and is suitable for being used as a small-sized planar array.
Antenna systems for receiving satellite direct broadcast communications are generally installed on airplanes or on top of automobiles, so that the antenna systems have good maneuverability, and the requirements on the antennas are higher. Such as: miniaturization, low profile, low loss, high gain, etc. In order to reduce the height of the antenna system, the antennas are generally designed as planar array antennas, and thus waveguide slot antenna arrays are well used.
In commercial satellite communication systems, the signals received and transmitted by the satellites are circularly polarized waves, so that no cross polarization component is caused no matter what angle the radar and the satellite are. That is, the satellite receives and transmits circularly polarized waves, without causing polarization mismatch and thus causing a decrease in the efficiency of data transmission.
U.S. Pat. No. 5579019 (usa patents US5579019 slot waveguide leaky-wave antennas (kohmaro and ogerma tacaca et al Masahiro Uematsu, Takashi Ojima, etc., slotted floor waveguide array antenna) and US7436371B1 low loss low profile dual polarized waveguide crescent slot antenna arrays (li. ma. paherson, coder. reis et al, Lee m. paulsen, center Rapids, etc., waveguided depletion slot array for low-loss, low-gain dual-polarization antenna) have problems of broadband operating beam pointing dispersion and reduced efficiency.
The wave and wang et al proposed a circular polarization waveguide standing wave antenna (chinese patent No. 200910185457.3), which is limited by the characteristics of waveguide standing wave slot array, i.e. the more the units, the narrower the operating bandwidth, and the narrower the axial ratio bandwidth of the circular polarization waveguide antenna, and the 3dB axial ratio bandwidth is less than 3%.
Wangwei, zimeiqing, zhangtao and the like have proposed a circularly polarized antenna (chinese patent No. 201310454644.3), in which a ridge waveguide is adopted to open two kinds of slots to realize a circularly polarized operation mode, but the circularly polarized waveguide antenna is also limited by the characteristics of a waveguide standing wave slot array, i.e., the larger the number of units, the narrower the operating bandwidth of the antenna.
In the new circular polarization waveguide slot antenna and the design method thereof (chinese patent, patent application No. 201510012239.5), the circular polarization mode is realized by opening two kinds of radiation slots on the convex waveguide tube, but the working bandwidth of the circular polarization antenna is also limited by the number of units, i.e. the more the number of units, the narrower the working bandwidth.
